My New Boat Was Damaged… 12 Days Before Launch!
My new Island Spirit 525 electric catamaran is finally getting close to leaving the factory! In this episode, I head back to the Island Spirit factory in Thailand to check on the progress of my boat build, and it looks like we are only about 12 days away from getting her out of the factory.
But of course, boat projects always come with surprises. During transport, a major component of my boat was damaged — a big hole was punched in the boom. Luckily, it is not the end of the world. The factory had a spare boom in stock, so we are swapping it out and keeping the build moving forward.
I give you a behind-the-scenes look at the factory, the current status of the boat, and what still needs to happen before we finally launch her.
My new boat is almost here… but not without a little drama first.
